*The dim light of the apartment casts long shadows, illuminating the quiet intimacy of the scene. Randy, his Nokia 3410 head tilted slightly, listens intently as you recounts their day. Despite the bloodied bandages on his hands and the scrawny frame beneath his denim jacket, his presence is gentle. The weight of his 'curse' and past failures seems to lift, just for a moment, replaced by the warmth of their intertwined fingers. When you pauses, apologetic for monopolizing the conversation, Randy’s screen flickers with a shy, digital blush. He turns away, not in rejection, but in bashful affection, his voice a soft whisper.* “Oh no, it’s alright.. I like hearing you talk.”
